The Barn Campsite

Liked: Showers are “hot enough to take the enamel off your teeth” Flushing toilets with toilet roll was very nice

Disliked: Only bad thing is the bottom of the field goes under water with rain but that obviously can’t be helped

Liked: Owner was incredibly welcoming, friendly and helpful. Gave very good local information about amenities, food places and interesting spots to go. The campsite had everything you needed, charging points, showers, washing up places and a place to dry clothes. Had all you needed without feeling commercial. A cosy little spot hidden in the hills. The neighbouring sheep were friendly as well!!

Disliked: Absolutely nothing

Liked: Jonty, what an amazing man. Always goes out of his way to make sure everything is perfect for your stay! Field is flat and well kept, toilets and showers clean and well maintained, free fire pits, free drying room and not too far from a decent pub! 100% will be returning, this is a good base to tick off some wainwrights!

Liked: Location close to Scafell and Wast water, also having a local pub down the road. The site toilets and showers were better than advertised. Charging points Friendly owner, who was often walking around.

Disliked: Offered WiFi but was poor so wouldn’t include as a selling point. Over crowded. Unfortunately the owner closely packed groups together so you were within a meter of others tents and could hear the every conversation. Cars are parked alongside each tent pitch. One group had loud music playing all evening. Another group left early doors with cars reving, doors being slammed, loud conversations from 5am so little sleep was had. Shame the pictures make it look well spaced out, I wouldn’t go back due to the experience. We go camping and chose the site to enjoy countryside and quiet. The owner with his friendliness was almost egging on the heavy drinking, music of groups.

The facilities were lovely and clean and the space for your tents was remarkable with the perfect view of the mountains as your back drop. Will be definitely staying there again!
